Jaded A Slap in the Face
Lisa"No, no need to apologize. It was my fault. You were in the right." Lisa moved into the living area.Marc turned to face her, his eyebrow lifting.The tight black leather jacket that rested over his white t-shirt caught her attention first. Surely he didn't. He extended a large red bag toward her."I got you something." He didn't seem at all like himself. It looked as if life had pulled the plug on his joy and forced him to watch it die."I don't need anything. I have everything I want back home." She shrugged and moved past him to sit down at the table. "Ms. Martin, do you need help with lunch?""Hmmm? Oh no. Just take a load off. We'll eat in about twenty minutes. What time is your flight?""It's at five today." Lisa shrugged, not sure what time the flight was. Trisha had yet to get back to her, but she would spend the night at the airport if it meant running hard and fast from her feelings."Five? I thought you were staying until tomorrow." Marc moved into her line of sight, s
Jaded Ruined
Marc"I just can't believe she left. I'm seriously in shock." Marc turned to Drayer, his best friend for the last twelve years. There isn't much the two of them hadn't been through together."I'm shocked as fuck that you care. Since when does Marc Martin care about one girl?" Drayer laughed and leaned back in his chair, his eyebrow lifting as he almost lost his balance.Marc reached out and steadied the chair before his friend busted his butt in the middle of the pub they inhabited every Monday afternoon for happy hour. It was a ritual to get there an hour before the rest of the frat house and just chill together. Summer school wasn't part of the plan that year, but failing Trigonometry put a spin on those plans fast."I know. That's the part I can't seem to get past. Why her?""Is she hot?""Wicked hot. I don't think I've seen a woman turn more heads, but it's not just about how good she looks. She oozes confidence and authority. Lisa has this fiery red hair that feels like silk unde
Jaded Invitation to a Threesome
MarcThe bartender scoffed and Marc laughed, turning to walk back to the table. His basketball scholarship at NYU was the only reason he was still there. The big city life offered a lot, but he was growing weary of it more and more. He looked at Drayer as he approached and motioned toward the bar."The hot blond has your beer. Go get her.""The blond or the beer?" his friend asked as he stood."Both?" Marc chuckled and set the beers down before taking his seat. Some of the guys in the fraternity were on the team, but most of them were focused on academics. He had no choice but to remain focused, but it was getting harder and harder. He had decided to forgo med school, but the bachelors and masters in biology were still on the table. Teaching would be a good first career."Marc Martin... NYC's most eligible bachelor." The pretty brunette nibbled at her lip after speaking to him, her arm wrapped around another girl’s waist. They both stared as if waiting for greatness. It wasn't happeni
Jaded Like She's Everywhere
MarcMarc sat in his truck on the side of his mom's small house, the world not making much sense all of a sudden. He didn't want to go back to campus, too many people to answer to. Staying at his mom's was the only other choice. He hadn't left the bar more than five minutes before he realized he couldn't sleep with the girls. No way. The image of Lisa sitting on his lap, his hands all over her, the smell of her... the fucking smell was so good, it drove him mad.He growled loudly and hit his hands on the steering wheel. He had to text Drayer to get him with some emergency bullshit to get him out of the situation. It was a code blueberry. The word was fucking stupid and it caused his lip to lift even as anger rolled over him in waves. Since junior high if one of them needed pulling out of a sinking ship of any kind all they had to do was give the 'code blueberry' to the other and the shit was on.He hadn't wanted to do it, and Drayer would give him loads of crap over it, but Marc had n
Jaded I'm Coming
MarcMarc picked up his phone as his mother called out to him to call Kari again."Fine. I'm calling." He dialed his sister's number, Kari picking up a few rings later."I thought you might not call." Her voice was soft like he had woken her."I can talk to you tomorrow, sis. I'm sorry I woke you.""No. It's good. I told momma to tell you to call. I just wasn't sure if you would.""Well, she's got a GUN to my head." Marc yelled parts of his response, his mother grumbling from the other room as he laughed."How are you?""I'm great. Fucked two girls at once tonight, both pretty and totally into me.""Liar.""Yeah, well that was the plan." He felt his mood souring. It never took more than a few minutes with his sister for the real him to come bouncing out. She was his closest companion, his very best friend. They had been through too much shit not to give her every bit of who he was, painful or not."And?""And I didn't have a condom." He smiled at the sound of his mom's gasp. He covere
Jaded Peep Show
LisaMonday came and went. Lisa couldn't seem to motivate herself to leave the house. She called Trisha to let her know that she was sick with food poisoning and would be back in on Tuesday. Her wonderful secretary took care of canceling everything. Lisa spent the day on the couch staring blankly at the TV or in her bed, rolling around in an effort to sleep her existence away.Leaving New York early was a good idea. She needed to get back to Maine, back to a life that made sense and didn't leave her drowning in the hormonal responses of a college-aged boy. Marc was too young. Plain and simple. He had the body of a god and could fuck like nobody's business, but so could plenty of other, older men. She needed to see Michael. To take out her frustrations on him and bleed her desires out over a long night."But he's gone too." Lisa growled loudly, reaching over and smashing a pillow to her face. She had been up all night, trying to figure out why Marc played along the recess of her though
Jaded Spend the Week with Me
LisaGetting to the office a few hours later helped. The familiar environment and her things just brought her emotions back down and pulled them into check. She was strong and sexy, a lion on the prowl in all things business as well as sex. She couldn't let some silly college boy take her attention and leave her needy. How pathetic..."You're back!" Trisha stood up from her desk, walking around and pulling Lisa into a hug as a loud cow bell resounded from on top of the door. Lisa gave the older woman a quick hug back and looked over her shoulder to locate the source of the noise."What in the world is that?" Lisa laughed, turning her attention back to Trisha."It's a bell so you can hear when someone comes in." Trisha shrugged. "We need something. It's creepy when I go to the back and return to find someone hovering over my desk, or worse, following me down the hall!"Lisa set her stuff down and moved to the door, reaching up and taking the bell down. "I understand, but this is going
Jaded Sexy Kidnapper
LisaIt seemed appropriate to wear a yellow summer dress for the evening, but Lisa was assured that if her attire didn't work, Michael would be gentlemanly enough to say something. She finished fixing her hair into a ponytail and walked into the kitchen, her sandals clicking on the freshly mopped tile."Wow. Don't you look like sexy innocence?" Sicily wagged her eyebrows as Kari let out a cat call.Lisa rolled her eyes and tried not to focus on Kari snuggled into Jake's lap, the man seemingly lost to his woman all the time. The idea of love scared her senseless. Lust was replaceable, but love... no thanks. "What time will you be back?" Kari asked, pulling from Jake's muscular arms and walking toward Lisa. She stopped in front of her and reached up to mess with her hair. Lisa stood still until her best friend was done and then picked up her purse."Not sure. I might just spend the night with him." She shrugged. "Who knows?""Who's him in case we have to hunt this mystery man down tomo
